Dedicated Server

Hello

anybody can tell me a good company for dedicated server wid intel quad core

Any preferences with regards to where in the world the server must be? Try LeaseWeb (US, DE, NL, SG), WebNetHosting (US), DataSource (CH), 100TB, OneProvider, etc. Also depends on what your requirements are with regards to connectivity.

@bobmane, what is your budget? Remember that US dedicated servers generally are more expensive than EU.

Once you start to review your entire server setup, there’s a 1000 possibilities which I can’t elaborate here. One of them is AWS EC2 indeed, although I’m not too fond of the network bandwidth that they offer. They generally count on you using CloudFront (CDN) if you want to distribute to a larger audience. If you want to look for interesting dedicated server deals, take a look at Dedicated Hosting Offers, but keep in mind that cheap may mean rubbish …

i just had a company who told me I had RAID 10 say that “2 drives failed at once and so you lost all your data” ?

in any case…I too need a new dedicated server company.

currently, my users can choose USA or EU in their control panel

for my EU i have been using

CPU

Intel® Xeon® CPU E3-1225 V2 @ 3.20GHz

Cores : 4

Cache : 8192KB

RAM

2x 8192MB

Disks

2 x 2000 GB

Motherboard

DH61AG

Real Time Monitoring version

0.9.4

Kernel version

3.2.13-grsec-xxxx-grs-ipv6-64

@ 100 MPS

for US I need at least that and would like RAID using 3 x 2 TB SATA3 or RAID 10 but so far costs have been too high where I looked.

or…—> maybe i should use Amazon for the video hosting? Is it a better deal for wowza hosting (the content) and as fast as dedicated?

budget is not high. server could be US or Canada. would not be able to spend more than around 100.00 a month for N American server.

right now i pay

wowza x2 110.00

EU Server 90 month

US server ?

might have to look at other configurations? what about getting amazon - does that eliminate the need for separate servers?

“I’m not too fond of the network bandwidth that they offer”

what do they offer if not using CF?

it seems to even start to stream you would need this:

Memory 15 GiB

CPU 8 EC2

Compute Units (4 virtual cores with 2 EC2 Compute Units each)

Storage 4 x 420 GB

Platform 64-bit

Network performance High

API Name m1.xlarge

est $583.00 a month

i guess could do reserved image and save up to 60% but this doesn’t count EBS, S3 and CF
